I've been photographing unfinished, unoccupied buildings which share similar stage of development despite age diversity. Most probably, due to economical reasons, some of them were temporarily delayed and will get their final shape later, but others, abandoned, remain unformed at the stage of early development. Environment forming their shape made them look old sooner than expected. In my country there's an old saying: Every real man should build a house, plant a tree and father a child. Sometimes reality corrects it: to lose the house, to cut the tree, and neglect the child.
